  • Victor Wembanyama’s rebounds-plus-assists over 17.5 is SportsLine’s top Game 3 prop, with Mike Barner citing 27 combined in Game 1 and 23 in Game 2.
  • 35 minutes is the key to that pick: Barner expects heavier playoff usage at home after Wembanyama averaged 31.0 points, 20.5 rebounds and 4.5 assists in the first two meetings.
  • Chet Holmgren’s under 13.5 points is another featured play after he averaged 10.5 points in the series and shot 39.6% against San Antonio this season.
  • Julian Champagnie’s over 10.5 points rounds out the card, with SportsLine pointing to extra chances if injured Spurs guards Dylan Harper and De'Aaron Fox remain limited.
  • 133-92 is Barner’s recent NBA run, while David Bearman is 16-8 on player props, as the Spurs host the Thunder at 8:30 p.m. ET with a 2-1 series edge in play.
With mounting pressure, can Chet Holmgren finally solve his 'Wembanyama problem' in a hostile Game 3 environment?
